We can neither confirm nor deny the reports, only pass on the information we have heard. Such a number wouldn’t be totally surprising but it would be a big increase on our normal allocation at the stadium.

In the past, our fans have been housed in just the Jackie Husband stand although you wouldn’t be surprised if Thistle had given us some extra seats this time round, given their lack of big fixtures over the past couple of seasons.

Whatever happens, that and the intriguing 5:30 kick-off time should make this a pretty special evening.
